  I was at Mimi’s yesterday looking for my dress for my wedding next year and honestly did not enjoy a minute of it. I was sooooooo excited to go as they have beautiful dresses but when I got there I was told because dresses were not my “size” I couldn’t even look at them to buy which is insane because obviously you can make any dress a size. I am not a big girl but at the beginning comments we’re made that I was and my bridesmaids there were told they could only look at a rack of a few dresses for me. We all came to look at dresses including bridesmaids and not once did they offer us to look at any bridesmaids dresses. The lady i worked with kept picking dresses she thought I would like even tho I didn’t say I wanted that style of dress. My bridesmaids actually picked out a dress that changed my opinion and made her let me try it on. Then she picked out a dress that she thought I would love and I did love aspects but not all of it. Not once did she offer to change the bottom (like they advertise) she was dead set on arguing (not in a rude way but just wouldn’t take an opinion that wasn’t hers) with everything my bridesmaids said about what they disliked about the dress because all she cared about was selling me this dress not a dress I loved. I was never offered a veil to look at any accessories anything. Once I said no to that dress they practically walked us out the door. Nothing was professional and staff are not trained well as compared to bridal stores I went to later in the day where i found my forever dress. I was very let down because I was so excited to go wedding dress shopping here and instead I was basically body shamed and told I couldn’t even look at all of the dresses. I was never measured so she was putting me in sizes that she thought fit me (size 20) & the dress she picked in size 20 had a corset and was still so big she had to put pads in the back for it to not be huge and falling off of me. Just overall a sad experience for a first time wedding dress shopper. A sale could have been made there I was more than willing.
